ESP32 Forum

Hello,
I am currently working with the ESP32-P4 Functional EV board (version 1.5.2) and attempting to enable debugging via the inbuilt USB Serial JTAG interface(port) using Visual Studio Code and the ESP-IDF environment.

I have followed the steps outlined in your documentation for JTAG debugging:
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp ... -interface


I was able to run OpenOCD successfully and reached the expected output as mentioned. Please refer the attached image from my terminal output(has somme error for cpu 1): I have attached my terminal output

Next step, I proceeded with configuring debugging in Visual Studio Code, following the guide below:
https://docs.espressif.com/projects/vsc ... oject.html
The required drivers were installed automatically. However, when I attempt to start the debugger (after selecting the appropriate board/esp32p4-builtin.cfg), I encounter persistent errors in the debug console

I am using ESP-IDF Debug:Launch for debugging(in launch.json), I have also tried using Eclipse CDT GDB adaptor, but still throws similar issue
I have attached the settings.json to show how I have configured

I have carefully applied the suggested configurations in both settings.json and launch.json, as per the document. I have also worked around board/esp32p4-builtin.cfg file and other related settings in these files and I’ve also tried multiple launch configurations, but all attempts lead to similar errors

Could you help me identify any potential misconfigurations or limitations that may be causing this issue?

Any insights or guidance would be greatly appreciated, as resolving this would significantly support our development workflow.

I have the same problem. Is there any solution? Is there any step-by-step advice? A working example?
I'm using ESP_Brookesia_Phone.
Thank you for any help!
I'm using the
launch.json:
{
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"name": "ESP-IDF Debug: Launch",
"type": "espidf",
"request": "launch",
"logFile": "${workspaceFolder}/gdb.log"
}
]
}
